President Donald Trump is delivering an address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday as he forges ahead with enacting his domestic and foreign policy agenda. Follow here for the latest live news updates and watch the speech live.

I thought the reason for trashing trade agreements and taking a wrecking ball to the Canadian economy with extreme tariffs was because of fentanyl coming from Canada at the border?

Apparently not, says Trump, from his speech at Congress tonight: “… Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again”.

By his own words, he has just shown his big lie.

Who’s gonna do anything about it anyway ? They’re all in on it.

Who is they? American business owners? Because while you might see the big public players on a stage with Trump, the private sector of business is a an extremely diverse group. They don’t support Trump by virtue of their existence, just because they’re businesses.

They == Congress

And they’re definitely not a fan of his obsession with tariffs. Just look what’s happening to the stock market.
